Background and approach

Sessions often include practical tools for coping with panic, sleep problems, low self-esteem, and workplace stress. Her methods mix client-centered work with techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing. That means she pays attention to a person’s goals and thoughts, and helps them test new behaviors between sessions.

Hypnotherapy and solution-focused strategies are also available when they match a client’s needs. Janette also addresses issues like caregiving strain, obsessive thoughts, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, and challenges linked to attention differences. She helps clients sort through practical problems such as money stress and career decisions as part of the therapy work.

People can expect straightforward, collaborative sessions that emphasize small wins. Janette helps clients track progress and adjust the plan as needed. Her approach is direct, supportive, and aimed at building skills people can use outside the session.

Approach-driven care through online sessions

Janette uses client-centered therapy to start most work. That means conversations focus on a person’s goals and values while the therapist listens and reflects. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, is used to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and test new behaviors to reduce anxiety, panic attacks, and low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Janette collaborates with each person to choose which methods fit best based on their goals and preferences. She will describe options, try things out, and adjust the plan if something feels off.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful for deeper conversations and working through exercises. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging let people touch base between longer sessions and fit support into busy days.

These formats help people access consistent care from licensed professionals without a commute, making it simpler to keep momentum and apply new skills in everyday life.
